Comment on Isn't Greedflatiin just inflation with different people profitting?
sheeeep@lemmy.world 11 months agoI am not sure. If I understood correctly then you separate between price gauging and currency devaluation. But even in the most perfect currency devaluation, where every one in the supply chain would increase their price by exactly the rate of inflation. What would happen to everyones profits? They would also go up.

Im separating them because they are different things. That doesn’t mean they don’t work in tandem. It just means they are different words with different definitions.
Also your statement is incorrect most likely due to operating costs associated since those also go up. But that instance wouldn’t be price gouging.
